HARLIs SAVED HIS LIFE.

About q quarter past four last Thurs
day afternoon while John Hoye, Frank
Harris and other railroad boys were
busy in the yards near the paint shops
they heard cry from the direction of
the river, and upon investigating the
cause they discovered capsized boat
and man struggling in the watersome-
thing over a hundred feet from the
shore. Harris took in the situation of
affairs at once and recognized the fact
that prompt assistance must be rend-
cred or the man would drown. Not
stopping to divest himself of any of his
apparel he plunged into the river and
swan to the mans rescue, reaching him
as he was sinking for the third and last
time. The man in his desperation
fastened on to Frank and came near
dragging him down to a watery grave,
but by superhuman effort Frank turn
ed and freed himself from the mans
grasp, still maintaining his hold upon
the follows wrist, and swan to the
shore with him in that way. He was
all of fifteen minutes reaching the bank,
and was so completely exhausted when
he reached shore that he had to be as
sisted. The unfortunate man proved to
be R. III. Dedrich, of Milwaukee, book
agent. 1t took the boys fully a half
hour to bring him back to conscious.
ness.
The above is from the Kaukauna
wis San. The hero is a son of Mr..
III. d. Harris, of this city.

FLOCKS AND FLEECES.

In the Chicago market light sheep
well fatted, bring better prices than
heavy ones. The most desirable weights
are % to So pounds per head.
The improvement of modern machin-
Iery enable manufacturers to use q
single grade of wool for much wider
range of purposes than was once deem
ed possible.
The sale of 1 800 pounds of wool has
been made by Alt. Johnson of the
Judith, to A. B. Blair, at 201 cents.
This is the highest price yet paid for
wool, but it is not its full value.
Nearly 10000 head of sheep were
sLeared at Missoula [ Mont this season,
all from the Bitter, Root and owned as
follows c. NJ. Sedgwick. 400 Frank
Drinkenberg, 1900; Fate Humble,
8, 400 A. G. Bennett. $500.
In comparison with its average posi-
ton for the past fifty years, wool is still
very low. Its natural and proper place
lis above the present range of values
and 1t is only a matter of time until it
will get there.
The Crow Indians, of Southern Mon
tana, are now permitted to lease $780,
600 acres of their lands for grazing pur-
poses to parties recommended by the
Indian agent. The rate for sheep and
goats is 12c per head.
Sheep manure contains from 80 to 80
per cent of the plant food contained in
the rations consumed by the sheep. It
is, therefore, a rich fertilizer, as expert
ence has shown. 1t is especially rich In
nitrogen in an available form, and for
that reason is excellent for use as a
starter in the hill for corn and potatoes.
The wool produced in this country is
used almost wholly for the manufacture
of clothes, and very little carpet wool is
raised in the United States. We pro-
duce annually about 330, 000, 900 pounds,
but the production this year will fall
short. Australian wool does not COM
pete with us much, as it is of a far high
er grade and is used in different manu-
features.
The excitement in the country has en-
tirely abated, says the Wool Journal. In
nearly every section of the west where
the wool was shown early it has passed
out of growers hands, and what was not
taken by manufacturers is now owned
by country dealers, who, refusing to sell
at a loss, view the situation with COM
placent fortitude, not unmingled with
hope that the powers that allowed them
to get into the trap will get them out of
it.

NORTHWESTERN ENTERPRISE.

The st. Paul Pioneer Press recounts
with natural show of pride the predic-
ton made in its columns on May 1 that
before 1888 low-grade railroad would
be in operation between st. Paul and the
head of Lake Superior, upon which a
single locomotive could haul fifty loaded
freight cars that it would be built and
operated at such comparatively small
cost and would command such volume
of traffic that it would be enabled to car
ry fourth-class freight at two or three
cents per 100; that it would be operated
in, connection with a fleet of ten steel
steamships of 5000 tons each, of the best
ocean models, and equipped with such
powerful machinery that they would
make the trip between Buffalo and Du-
luth in four days, and that as conse-
quence of these arrangements merchan-
disc from the seaboard would be laid
down in st. Paul at substantially the
same rates as in Chicago" 1t was shown
" that all the territory west and north of
line drawn from Menominee on Green
Bay to Kansas City on the Missouri
would be more cheaply supplied from
St. Paul than from Chicago" 1t now
says : ga fleet of ten steel steamships
of the class described, to ply between
Buffalo and Duluth, have already been
contracted for, and six Of them are al.
ready ON the stocks and the graders
are already at work on the northerly
section of what is to fulfill in all respects
the requisites of a low-grade freight line
between st. Paul and the head of Lake
Superior" Also ga syndicate of ST..
Paul capitalists. working in harmony
with the Minnesota & Northwestern,
have organized for the construction of q
low-grade, double-track steel railroad
between st. Paul and Minneapolis and
some point at the head of Lake Superior,
to connect also with a feet of swift steel
steamers to ply between its terminus
and Buffalo,"
